After stepping foot back on the cobbles for the first time in more than three years, Bethany catches the eye of former flame Daniel Osbourne. She is then seen calling at her mum Sarah’s flat who is thrilled to see her daughter. At No.8. am equally delighted Gail suggests they celebrate with a family lunch at Speed Daal.
Across the street, Daisy Midgeley clocks Bethany and points her out to Jenny Connor. And when Jenny reveals that Daniel slept with Bethany last night, Gail, David and Sarah are stunned.

Speaking about Bethany now, after more than three years away from Weatherfield, Lucy said she'd still a 'wild child' but there are some changes viewers can expect to see. "I'd say she's quite career-focused. She's very driven in her career and is very desperate to pursue this journalism career that she's started in London and I'd say she's grown up," the soap star told the Manchester Evening News..
The Blackpool-born soap star, who has welcomed her first child with boyrfirned Ryan Ledson while she's been away from Corrie, also teased that Bethany, who was working as a journalist in London, is hiding a secret.
She told us: "She's basically been forced to come back, I don't know if I'm allowed to say what it is but there is something that's happened in London that has kind of forced her to come back
